Phusion Passenger’s development continues on. A few bugs have been found and fixed. These fixes are deemed to be important enough to backport to the 2.0.x series, so today we present you with Phusion Passenger 2.0.2
comments : 0 Add comment
Phusion has released Passenger 2.0.1, the first non-release candidate version of their popular Passenger / mod_rails / mod_rack Rails deployment Apache module. Passenger was developed to make the deployment of Rails applications on Apache “a breeze” and now with the 2.x series, it makes it easy to deploy Rack based applications too (such as Merb apps).
Curiously, Passenger now also boasts Python WSGI support, meaning you can deploy both Rails and Django apps in the same way. Passenger also say the 2.x version is more stable, using less memory, and features significantly improved load balancing between processes. Upload buffering is also implemented, making Passenger even more efficient in file upload situations.

I was using Thin for my rails website, and I gave a try to Passenger
According to some tests: 
The difference between Thin and Passenger is not the speed but more the ease of install and configuration. But the CPU & memory load is also lower.
The new 2.0 RC version is out and I will give it a try this week-end.
